    "Life is full of NO, but as long as you still have YES in your heart that's all that matters." 


    Today I have the great privilege of speaking with the one and only Chari Hawkins. Chari has done extraordinary things both on and off the track and has inspired countless people to chase after their wildest dreams. If I was to recommend one episode of my podcast to someone, it honestly might be this one. Chari shares an unbelievable amount of wisdom in a succinct and engaging way. 


    In this episode, Chari and I discuss a plethora of subjects including why failing is crucially important, how to separate your identity from your sport, having fun in the sport, why it's important to share your journey as a whole, dealing with expectations from the outside world, and much more! We also talk about growing up as the youngest kid in the family and Chari answers what she would cook Gordan Ramsay for dinner.
